[Bug 41428] Abiword max print resolution only 60 DPI (Dapper-beta1)

[ozonehole]

Public bug reported:

Affects: abiword (Ubuntu)
       Severity: Normal
       Priority: (none set)
         Status: Unconfirmed


Description:
I installed Dapper-beta1 and set up my printer, an Epson LQ-680 (24-pin
dot matrix). I set the resolution to 360x180 DPI. However, Abiword only
seems capable to outputting the lowest resolution, 60 DPI. I tried
different fonts, but it didn't help. Interestingly, the default font
(Times New Roman) doesn't seem to be available from the Format --> Font
menu - maybe that's another bug?

I have Kword installed too, so I tried that and output on the same
printer was good quality 360x180 DPI.

In earlier versions of Abiword I have not encountered this problem.
Printer output has always been good, so it only seems to be an issue
with the current version.

best regards,
Robert (ozonehole)
